Braided graphite packing 2001/I

chemical-resistantfor valves

is Diagonally braided from pure graphite yarn with a minimum purity of 99%, reinforced with fine metal wires, treated with corrosion inhibitor and pure graphite powder. It is a high performance valve packing for high temperature / high pressure applications. The pure graphite fibre does not harden or glaze at high temperature. Ideal packing to be used as end rings for softer, less pressure resistant packings. This excellent valve packing is particularly well suited for extreme temperature and pressure conditions - also in connection with very aggressive media - in all areas of industry. It is suitable for steam, water, oils, condensate, alkalies, acids, solvents, paint, varnishes and most chemicals with the exception of highly oxidizing media. Low coefficient of friction ensures easy, low torque operation of valves. Very little loss of volume at high temperatures. Low density - yields more metres per kilogram!
